4 Our Solutions for Your Process From incoming to outgoing goods: Our solutions for your process. Production processes may be similar; however, no two installations are ever the same. That is why we not only offer an extremely wide range of products and services but, by way of individual consultation, we also develop solutions that are precisely customdesigned for the specific application.

5 Raw materials, primary products and semifinished goods are delivered in the widest variety of containers and quantities. Exact measurement and logging of the supplied quantity is the basis for all subsequent processing steps. Sartorius offers a particularly wide range of products for this task: Desktop, benchtop and floor scales and components for equipping hopper and tank scales and road vehicle weighbridges. An extensive range of accessories and a large selection of interfaces allow easy, user recognition and management as well as integration into inventory control systems. Precise inventory management and reliable data form the backbone of advanced, lean warehousing and highly accurate provision to the subsequent processes. Strictly batch-related management facilitates exact traceability. This creates security and supports PPS and MES systems in the best possible way. Manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic additions to and withdrawals from stock are supported by means of comprehensive connection options and operator terminals: Plain text operator guidance, barcode scanners through to the connection of RFID writing and reading devices with Sartorius you are equipped for the future. The availability of systems and their components is at the heart of efficient production. And our products offer a host of additional benefits alongside their already proverbial accuracy and ruggedness. Maximum resolution and accuracy allow the flexible use of production resources. From leading-edge fieldbus and Ethernet technology to wireless communications all data is transparent for use in other systems. And all this is complemented by many useful additional functions: from highly accurate automatic batching to continuous discharge control. Always exactly as the process and our customers require. Today, quality assurance is an integral component of the value-added chain and extends far beyond merely checking whether an item is OK or not. Advanced systems from Sartorius not only recognize variances in quality they actively help to prevent such variances. In addition to complying with current standards, such as HACCP, IFS, ISO 22000, Ford Q101 and prepackage requirements, our systems deliver data and information, allowing processes to be controlled more effectively. Intelligent equipment from Sartorius detects trends and puts corrective actions in place even before a tolerance limit has been exceeded. In this way, quality assurance becomes quality control. This is where it shows how well all elements have worked together all along the process chain. Sartorius technology now makes it possible to meet the highest safety requirements, such as 100% inspection for contamination using state-ofthe-art metal detection. Checking completeness and filling quantities in accordance with legal requirements, recording each batch and providing complete documentation all the way to certified recording of quantities of goods supplied and generating the appropriate documents according to the requirements of legal metrology Sartorius systems do it all, promptly and accurately. 5
